The numbers displayed in the DUST 514 client are indeed Tranquility + DUST, but it does not work the other way around. This was confirmed by CCP.<br /><br />If you would like to convince me otherwise, please send me the proof.NoizyGamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17315716516032999133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-4334657126234472702014-06-15T16:06:40.580-05:002014-06-15T16:06:40.580-05:00That's not the pcu count tho.

This is why there is no unusual spike. When DUST offcially launched, most of the players already had open beta accounts.<br /><br />And, CCP devs have confirmed that DUST players have "accounts" on Tranquility - this is how they share local with EVE players in certain systems (it is also why they are always stuck in their original NPC home system local forever on Tranquility, no matter what system they really are in on the DUST server).Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-66538092503370299692014-06-15T00:57:49.660-05:002014-06-15T00:57:49.660-05:00CCP has never said that the industry changes will ...CCP has never said that the industry changes will improve PCU or subs. In fact, the seniors do expect high-sec industry-only account subs to drop, due to the usual player dissatisfaction whenever a large change is made to an old part of the game.<br /><br />However, CCP's recent house-cleaning of unnecessary staff has left the company in good shape, and any loss in subs is expected to be easily absorbed.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-24016018658488195272014-06-13T15:51:39.706-05:002014-06-13T15:51:39.706-05:00That new graph definitely looks better and support...That new graph definitely looks better and supports your argument more effectively.NoizyGamerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17315716516032999133noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-17294109843144968152014-06-13T11:45:42.274-05:002014-06-13T11:45:42.274-05:00No idea on the concurrency numbers but there's...No idea on the concurrency numbers but there's no doubt DUST players are counted in the map statistics "docked and active" system user counts.<br /><br />That could lead one to assume they're counted in the concurrency numbers too.MoxNixhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12407914481361718041noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-942059813481083566.post-694134475129893782014-06-13T10:15:56.141-05:002014-06-13T10:15:56.141-05:00Thanks for the tip.
